Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Interesting, looks very natural. But I agree that some other (German) engines would have been more suitable than the Merlins - at least DBs, or Jumo power eggs.  ;)

RAFF-35

What a fantastic idea, very well built and finished too  :thumbsup:

"a project which never materialized. In 1943 the FiAF HQ asked VL if it would be possible to build a copy of the Mosquito with DB605 engines. Two crashed British aircraft would have been requested from Germany to serve as models. "

I like it a lot.  Maybe a schräge music installation would have been the go as well.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That re-engined Finnish Mossie looks nice. Very subtle.

I did a night fighter with Hercs, that' what an alternative with BMW 801s might look like?

Doesn't look like you had any fun when you built this one  :thumbsup: I know we're certainly not BO+RD looking at it  :thumbsup: Love the colours and pattern. That would certainly turn a few heads !
